Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2242: Chapter 2286: Scam Message

The Young Emperor scoffed coldly, "I don’t care who you are. If you steal from me, you die!"

His figure flashed, thrusting his spear straight at the heart of the Black Lotus of Tribulation. Sensing the danger, the Black Lotus of Tribulation whipped its vines out like lightning. However, wherever the Godslaying Spear passed, the vines were entirely shattered. The long spear pierced directly into the lotus root body.

The Young Emperor was just about to shatter this evil lotus root completely. Suddenly sensing something, his eyes narrowed. He stared at the pierced wound and said, "It’s you?"

He glanced at the stolen corpse and asked, "Are you feeding the Black Lotus of Tribulation?"

A faint ripple of a soul transmitted from within the lotus root. Hearing this, the Young Emperor withdrew his long spear and turned to walk into the distance. Without looking back, he ordered, "Follow me!"

The Black Lotus of Tribulation tightly coiled around the corpse. After sucking it dry, it hesitated for a moment before flying toward the Young Emperor, trailing far behind him.

The Godslaying Spear let out a weird chuckle. "Kid, I’ve finally figured it out.

"Your heart isn’t nearly as ruthless as your words."

"Shut up!"

"I’m just telling the truth!"

One day later, just outside Nanqian. Jiang Fan and Qing Jiu flickered into existence with Instantaneous Movement. The tense expressions on their faces eased considerably.

Jiang Fan turned to look at the Void behind them and said, "It seems we arrived first."

For safety’s sake, he had used Instantaneous Movement consecutively along the world barrier of Nanqian to cover quite a distance. This was to avoid a repeat of the situation where the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis was waiting for them like a hunter setting a trap when they entered the Martial Vault.

Soon after, convinced that the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis hadn’t arrived ahead of them, Jiang Fan took out a mask and put it on. This time, he changed his appearance to that of a refined middle-aged man.

Qing Jiu took one look and her mouth twitched slightly. "You’re really not afraid of getting beaten up!"

Right now, Jiang Fan was disguised as none other than the Mixed Element State Wine Festival!

Jiang Fan shrugged. "Just in case we run into another one of his old lovers in Nanqian, this face could save my life."

Of course, he was just saying that. He didn’t believe for a second that the Mixed Element State Wine Festival would actually have an old flame in Nanqian too! It was impossible for him to have monopolized every formidable woman in the world, right?

Then, he took out a Life Space Pocket and said, "You’re the Asura Emperor, so you can’t enter and exit Nanqian freely. Come inside."

Qing Jiu waved her hand, a faint trace of humiliation reappearing on her face. "Did you forget that I have another identity?"

Jiang Fan froze for a moment, then slapped his forehead. "Oh, I almost forgot! You’re a First-Grade Imperial Decree Lady!

"You have a cruel scumbag of a husband who is also a nobleman of the Daqian Divine Kingdom."

With this identity, Qing Jiu could freely enter and exit the world barrier. She shot him a glance and expressionlessly sidestepped him, descending onto the world barrier first.

Jiang Fan looked thoroughly baffled. "Why does she seem to be holding a grudge against me?"

Shaking his head, he stepped up to the world barrier. With a flick of his finger, the sword scabbard on his back activated. More than ninety swords flew out at once, merging together into a colossal giant sword.

Qing Jiu’s almond-shaped eyes widened slightly as she muttered to herself, "No wonder the Other Shore Realm Master told me to stay by his side.

"This guy took a trip through the Void; just how many opportunities did he fish up?"

While she marveled, Jiang Fan had already slashed his sword against the world barrier.

CRACK—

The thick barrier split open on the spot, and Jiang Fan grabbed her, rapidly charging inside. A surge of abundant Spiritual Energy, even superior to the Martial Arts Vault, blew against their faces!

Jiang Fan immediately took out the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths, preparing to search for nearby heartbeats. However, the Moon Realm in his pocket transmitted a message first. Who would be sending a message at a time like this? Was it Qingxian?

Jiang Fan hurriedly pulled out the Moon Realm, but couldn’t help feeling disappointed upon seeing it. It was Liang Feiyan.

However, after reading his message, a rather strange expression appeared on Jiang Fan’s face.

"Never a Buzzkill: Jiang Fan, I am injured and currently receiving treatment at the Nanqian Sanatorium. I urgently need one hundred Daqian Divine Coins for the medical fees. Please hurry to Nanqian and transfer one hundred Daqian Divine Coins to the following account through the Nanqian Official Bank."

Qing Jiu leaned over curiously, raising an eyebrow. "This is a scam message, right?"

Jiang Fan nodded. "We Moon Realm holders have an agreement to only address each other by our codenames.

"Since my real name was used, it’s obviously not Liang Feiyan himself.

"Those four guys have most likely run into trouble."

He rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. Liang Feiyan, Wang Chongling, Ren Guhong, and Chuyue—the four of them had teamed up to explore the Void, relying on the large number of Void Feather Robes that Jiang Fan had left at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

Not long ago, Liang Feiyan had even sent a message saying he had arrived in Nanqian. To think that by the time Jiang Fan arrived, they would already be in trouble.

"Let’s hope they’re still alive," Jiang Fan said, frowning deeply.

At that moment, another message came through. It was the so-called bank "account."

"Tiandu Black Moon Sanatorium."

Qing Jiu frowned. "This sanatorium has quite the background.

"Tiandu is the center of Nanqian, right at the feet of the Emperor. For them to dare openly run a fraudulent business and scam people here means they definitely have powerful backing.

"We need to carefully plan our approach to save them."

A cold light glinted in Jiang Fan’s eyes. "Whoever dares to kidnap my people from Central Earth won’t get away with it, no matter who they are!

"As for how to save them, it’s really not that complicated.

"We’ll just storm straight in!"

He took off another Life Space Pocket from his waist and tipped it toward the ground. The Big Black Dog tumbled out. It was currently gnawing on a bone from an unknown origin with great relish.

Suddenly finding itself free, it froze for a moment. Once it sensed the familiar aura, it jumped to its feet and exclaimed excitedly, "This... is this Nanqian?

"I, the Dog Lord, have returned to Nanqian!"

Just as it was rejoicing, its back suddenly felt heavy. Looking down, it realized that Jiang Fan had smoothly mounted it, sitting squarely on its back.

"Stupid dog, you know about the Black Moon Sanatorium, right?"

Only then did the Big Black Dog snap back to reality—it was still under Jiang Fan’s control! Realizing they were in Nanqian, the Big Black Dog secretly ground its teeth.

It thought, "You human scum, you still dare to act arrogant toward me after arriving in Nanqian?

"Hmph, you’re doomed. Once I call the Nanqian Royal Family for help, you’ll be completely and utterly finished!

"I’ll just endure you for now!"

Without missing a beat, it replied aloud, "The Black Moon Sanatorium? Of course I know it. It was established by a little Viscount, backed by a Marquis."

Sure enough, it was sheltered by heavyweights.

Jiang Fan asked, "Between you and that Marquis, who has a higher rank?"

The Big Black Dog puffed out its chest. "Hey? What do you mean? I am the National Guardian Dog of Nanqian, His Majesty’s Spiritual Pet!

"Could a mere little Marquis possibly dare to step out of line with me?"

Jiang Fan nodded slightly. "Excellent. Then I can storm the place with complete peace of mind.

"Qing Jiu, get on!"

Qing Jiu glanced at the Big Black Dog’s back and noticed the only remaining space was a small spot right in front of Jiang Fan. She hesitated, but then remembered she had already been intimate with Jiang Fan several times. What was there to mind about something this trivial?

Thus, she hopped up entirely naturally.

Wrapping one arm around her waist, Jiang Fan smacked the Big Black Dog’s hindquarters with his other hand. "Let’s go!"

The Big Black Dog cursed internally, "Damn it, showing off your romance right on the Dog Lord’s back, huh?"

With a powerful push of its four legs, it sped off like a gust of wind.
